i hate med school Flashcards
phenytoin
zero order kinetics
malformation
poor formation of tissue
ex of incomplete morphogenesis
spina bifida
cleft palate
ex of recurrent morphogenesis
having 18 toes (polydactyly)
ear tags
ex of aberrant morphogenesis
ectopic thyroid
deformation + examples of it
unusual forces on normal tissue
club foot
potter sequence (stockings over face disease)
disruption + examples of it
breakdown of normal tissue
digital amputations
vascular accidents that cause ischemia/necrosis
are deformations lethal
rarely
what is a sequence?
when one anomaly triggers a sequence of other anomalies
(spina bifida triggers something downstream, i dont know what)
what does TORCH stand for
T oxoplasmosis
O h no, I have syphillis!
R ubella
C ytomegalovirus
H erpes
memantine
open channel blocker
glutamate NMDA
(for glutamate-gated Ca2+ channel)
tx alzheimers
AMPA/kaitine channel for what NT?
inh or excitatory?
glutamate
excitatory
ondasteron
molec mechanism
what does it treat
5HT3 serotonin blocker
anti emetic after cancer
benzos
allosteric activators of GABA-A
penicillin effect on NT channel
what does it cause?
open channel blocker of GABA-A
causes seizures
strychnine
comp inh of glycine receptor
tetanus toxin
inh glycine release
hyperekplexia
familial startle disease
glycine channels mutated, no inh stimulus
competitive inh
decrease potency, incr EC50
no change in efficacy
non-comp inh
EC50/potency same
decreased efficacy
uncomp inh
decrease efficacy
decr EC50 (incr potency)
ex of receptor that follows constrained subunit model
Nicotinic ACh
ex of receptors that follow sequential change model
ionotropic glutamate receptors
GPCRs
EPSPs/EPPs
activation of NT receptor permeable to Na/Ca causes depolarization
